Location: Courtenay Estuary/ K’Omosks Estuary
Date and time of site visit: April 21, 14:20
Collected by: Cathy Audia
Before traveling to the estuary I check the tide schedule to avoid the problem of arriving and finding the study site submerged in water. Luckily this initial step, allowed me to collect the data with no other problems arising. While collecting the data, I was surprised to find the quadrants were not an accurate representation of the distribution of the subject. As the estuary is so vast I felt I needed to expand the number of quadrants recorded to allow for a larger service area to be represented. This modification should allow for a more accurate representation of the subjects cover, resulting in more precise findings of the field study.
